What is the difference between an interior designer and an interior decorator?
Interior decorators focus on the decorative elements of a home, such as: paint color, furniture, décor, window treatments, bedding, etc. Designers provide this expertise combined with the knowledge of interior architectural principals, drafting skills, general building code guidelines, and much more. The Interior Designer creates a comprehensive approach to each design project inclusive of decorative and architectural considerations to ensure a one-of-a-kind design experience for each client.

What size projects do you do?
Our service offerings begin with the ease of our cost effective, online consultation, or in-home Color Transformation, expanding into room by room Interior Transformations, all the way to our comprehensive Master Design Planning services that can include total home design and/or renovation.

What is a Color Transformation?
Color introduced intuitively and thoughtfully, begins the empowering process for change. Living with colors that feel good elevates a person’s sense of well-being in their environment. Color that harmonizes with the home’s furnishings and architecture, transform a home.
-
What do you charge for your services?
Our service offerings create value through ‘packaging’ our costs. Our pricing structure offers a flat fee in lieu of an hourly consultation making our fees tailored to fit your design needs. This allows you to control your budget by clearly understanding what our design participation is. Large projects are specialized to each client’s needs, and investment is determined based upon the scope and complexity of the project, as well as our involvement in the various aspects of the project.

How does the design process work?
Our process ensures that our clients are in the driver’s seat in regard to their budget considerations. Our careful listening and intuitive solution-driven expertise form a framework for guiding our client’s vision. During our discussions, we develop a trusting communication that allows us to organize project priorities, along with, the client’s wish list. This relationship ensures our client’s budget is honored along with their design goals.
-
What is the usual lead time and project time frame?
Every project is unique in this way. We oversee the project from start to finish, along with our vendor and trade partners, to ensure that time-sensitive schedules are both created and maintained. We keep you updated during the entire process, and visit our job sites regularly to guide and troubleshoot.
-
How do I keep track of the design details and other information?
We have created an exclusive SourceBook as our vehicle for delivering the myriad details and original designs that are part of each design project. Many of our clients have multiple SourceBooks as we continue to work with them over the years. Our SourceBook is unique to our company. This comprehensive book showcases material selections, specifications, drawings, renderings, budget, and any other ingredients of the project. Most of our clients keep their SourceBook in an easily accessible area in their home, where they can refer to as needed.
